Infamous hacking group, Anonymous, began a series of attacks against Sony earlier today, bringing down several Sony sites and the PlayStation Network. However, a radical offshoot of the main group believe that the attacks aren't enough, and are prepared to take the fight to a more severe level.
A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
So who's this helping? Thanks Anonymous - also known as "cowards hiding behind masks". You will only bring down to hell the reputation of the one you claim you're helping, Geohot - a reputation that was already tarnished.
But fight if you must because in the end you WILL lose. Fight like children who never grew up. Children who stayed in their parents basements like zombies with no souls. Go ahead with your vigilante war - and we'll see who wins and lose in the end. Hint - it's you.
I'd advice all of you clowns to get wives....Because apparently you all are in desperate need of companionship. Women to help relieve the stress of paranoid personality disorder. Narcissism and double-mindedness. Crazy set of....God bridle my tongue!
Shit just got serious, this is crazy
They really have got their panties in a twist over everything havn't they?! Would be a shame if they used their time wisely like getting a job instead of sitting at home using mummie and daddies internet all day.
Well PSN seems to be back online 100% I and everyone I know are fully up and running. These people are a bunch of low life's that need to get out of their parents basements and do something productive. I was talking about PSN. Not playstation.com.
"SonyRecon founder randomtask stated: sony , the judge and sonys lawyers are all valid targets"
This is just wrong. First, attacking a website. Now, attacking PEOPLE. I mean, it says they're uncovering where they live. Personally, if I worked for Sony, I'd be scared right now. I hope they find out who these scumbags are and sue the shit out of them.
